In many a #language (yet not English) the name of this #holiday comes from 'Birth'.
What we name something & call it plays a huge role in what the thing itself becomes.
Different aspects/narratives get emphasised.
#Natal ~ #Portuguese
#Natale ~ #Italian
#Navidad ~ #Spanish
#Noël ~ #French
#Nollaig ~ #Irish & #Gaelic

Nollaig Chrìdheil dhuibh!
Mar chuimhneachan air na laoich a dh'fhalbh.
Frohe weihnachten!
Raise a glass to those 'who are gone but were links in the chain'. Hae a guid yin.

Up very early ;
Not to wrap presents
Nor to cook a special breakfast
But to feel the silent solitude of
A morning the world slows down.
I sit, quiet enjoyment of the feeling
Created by so many people pausing :
Open
Spacious
Full of gratitude,
& wonder,
What would it be like if,
All the year,
Or 12 full days, or
Even this whole day,
We all remembered
What it feels like to be human.

Seo rudín Nollaigiúil inteach le Charles Dickens atá aistrithe ón Sacs-Bhéarla agamsa:
‘Dá mbeadh mo thoil déanta, bheireofaí gach uile amadán a bhíonn ag siúl thart agus “Nollaig shona!” ar a bhéal mar aon lena chuidse maróige agus d’adhlacfaí é le cuaille as cuillin trína chroí.’
#Xmas #Nollaig #Gaeilge #GaeilgeBhriste #GoodCheer #HoHoHo
Any errors or infelicities of translation remain Dickens’s own bloody fault.
I trust this answers @seatrout’s question about my Christmas spirit.
